Thank you very much for making my lowball a HUGE success. I have gained much respect for the lowballers before me in how much work it is. But for the lack of fees and knowing the items are going to a good home, it's worth it. Below are your invoices, let me know if you have any questions, or if there were any errors.

UPDATES - I will post updates here if there has been added items or renumbering (won't happen in the last few days), changes to rules, or any other news. If I can find some freebies, I'll note it here, as well.

02-Apr: I have added my freebie for the highest number of items won. It is my personal copy of the Ar Tonelico: Qoga Premium Edition. Complete with artbook and soundtrack. The reasoning for the giveaway to the most items won is simple. The more items someone wins, the less packages I have to build and mail

03-Apr: Please comment on if the DLC codes (category 9) should count toward the total items won in terms of acquiring the items won freebie.--- Added some items in cyan!!

05-Apr: DLC codes will count as items won. I left the discussion open from here to here. With no dissenters in the two days, the number of items won will include DLC in the item count to determine who gets the Ar Tonelico freebie.

06-Apr Super late additions in lavender. Check Category 10, the pseudo freebie section (or post 155). I am doing some late late late additions. I found a bit of PSP stuff I have no need for. I'll accept $0 bids on them, just so they go to a home that actually wants them. Provided you win something else, there will be no additional shipping on them. Also, if they are bought at $0, they don't count toward the items won freebie. If they are bought $1 or above, they will count toward the items won freebie. If one of those is the only item won (doubtful), please consider paying shipping.

1) Simply type in your max bid for the item in this thread. No PMs. No Emails. Just reply in the forum reply section. This is to keep bids public. Obviously post edits and spoilers hiding bids are NOT acceptable. If you made a mistake in your submission, please post again.

2) I will update the first page to reflect your bids as often as possible. Feel free to check the latest bids on the last page(s) if you are unsure of the latest update time.

3) Bidding starts at $1.00. There is no minimum to win any item. You can win them for as little as you bid. So if you bid $1.00 and win it, it's yours for a $1.00 (plus shipping). If someone bids $5 and you outbid them for $10, you may win the item for your $10 bid and pay your bid plus shipping at the end of the sale.

4) The smallest bid increment is $1.00, so no $0.50, $0.10, or $0.01 bid increments!

5) Please note that you will be expected to pay the amount you bid plus appropriate shipping if you have the highest offer at the end. Negative feedback will be left for those who choose not to follow through with payment.

6) If you place a bid, you are committing to that item. DO NOT place a bid if you do not intend to keep that bid active. While I understand that sometimes unavoidable circumstances arise, if you are fearful that this may happen, please wait to bid on the last day so you know that nothing unexpected occurred!

8) CAGs with over 100 positive trades at 100% are eligible for shipment before full payment if requested. Please ask if you do not feel safe bidding.

9) Payment will be expected within 7 days of the ending date of the lowball if you win. So, if you win something, I want to get paid in 7 days, capiche?

10) International Bids accepted, but please contact me beforehand.

11) Placing a bid means you have read the rules accept these and agree to abide by them.

Personal Rules:12) I am fine with numerical bidding. In the dying moments, have numbers of the items you want on hand, so you know who you're bidding against and who's bidding on your items. This expedites it for everyone to get bids in.

13) By bidding, you are promising to hand over your first born child. If you are not fine with this, then do not bid.

14) Obviously Rule 13 isn't real.

15) Always follow Rule 15.

16) Never follow Rule 16.

SHIPPING: Shipping via USPS will be $3.00 plus $0.80 DC, and then a $1.00 per each additional item. This should cover delivery confirmation and first class shipping to almost anywhere in the States. One (or two) items can be shipped via mailer. Obviously, international shipping will be be more and calculated individually. Items marked with § are items that I would prefer to ship in a box or something other than a bubble mailer, and I'm sure you would, too. Odds are $6.00ish will cover the bubble wrap and boxes for them plus shipping. I'm not trying to make money on shipping, so if you notice a large discrepancy when you receive it, let me know and I can get the difference back to you. Obviously, I can throw a larger item into a bubble mailer if you really want to save on shipping, but it would make me sad :( and likely you too when you received it.

I know they're ballpark-ish numbers but I'll do my best to provide exact actual shipping totals. Obviously things like the Totori poster and cels will have a negligible effect on the final ship price in combined orders.

Ohh, and of course the highest bidder in terms of money spent gets FREE SHIPPING!!!

Nintendo DS21) Mario Limited Edition DS Lite (hinge is cracked, may need some glue as the hinge only sticks at the full 180 degrees)§ - $30 Relysis--- PICS (front, back, open, open and on, top, bottom, close top, close top left, close top right, left side, right side, crack on top left, top right)--- Makes an awesome display piece, but also works well, no dead pixels. Just wanted to get closeups on the crack and discolourations.--- I've gotten a few questions. The system works great, and the DS and GBA slot both work great. The problems are the cosmetic problems and the fact it doesn't stick at say 120 degrees like other DSes do.22) Etrian Odyssey† (front, back) - $5 Relysis23) Radiant Historia - limited initial release with soundtrack and slipcover SEALED§ (front, back, side 1, side 2, side 3, side 4) - $50 handsome_bitch

Update four: Despite the voting methods being confusing for some, and thus their votes being counted as "Pat Buchanan", it looks like "No" on the rolling end time is getting a majority, rather than a plurality, so that's likely where we're heading. Nor has anyone mentioned a need to end this sucker on a weekend. I've added more items and am giving my collection a final look over to see if there's anything else I'll add. Should be up within the next couple of days.

Update three: Back out of town again. I obviously want to run this when I will have a full week in town so i can keep it updated. Maybe Tues-Tues or Weds-Weds, unless it 'needs' to end on the weekend.

I may or may not have done something bad with the HDN mk2...opened it :( I also sold the ugly MGS for $120 to someone who is obviously not a CAG, I'll entertain offers on things while I'm out of town, as the lowball hasn't officially started, but I don't want to Not let everyone have a chance at things. So they have to be 'knock my socks' off type of offers, like that poor silly fool that paid $120 for a decimated MGS.

And speaking of everyone having a chance to win. I am debating on doing a rolling end. Personally I don't like rolling ends, because it means a tonne more work and staying up even later for a negligible amount of money. But, I have won plenty of stuff by 'lucky' snipes and lost plenty by 'lucky' snipes. Some folks get angry at each other, I just brush it off an laugh, and I think the majority does, too. But I know some folks don't like the random ending 'coin-flippiness' of the ending. A rolling end may assuage those sentiments. Let me know any feelings one way or the other on the rolling end.

As a clarification, I would probably have the lowball end at 22:00 EST or 19:00 PST if there's a rolling end. Probably the typical 22:00-23:59 EST, 19:00-20:59 PST random ending time.

Update two:Lowball will be a go likely the end of next week, been asked about a start time by a few folks. I'm still finding and adding items and uploading pics. Feel free to mention further interests.

Also, I will be in Philly until Thursday, so I'll have limited access. Sorry if I don't get to PMs too quick.

Update one: Trying to gauge interest on a lowball for some various stuff I have. Mostly swag, or sealed collector's editions. Let me know if/how much interest there would be in some of these items.

Haha, yeah, I checked my log and I think I hadn't logged in since August. Been moving and working. Barely even gamed. Finally things have settled down. Definitely missed the lowball crew though, and good to be back.

Can't remember what part of Cali you're in. I have a friend looking to move to Loma Linda for work at the Children's hospital and has no idea about housing.

hey is there any way to check the quality of the items inside of the messed up MGS HD collection. i dont really care about the packaging but i am interested in the steelbook and shirt. if theyre still in good shape, ill throw my hat in the ring

My thoughts exactly, though I'm more interested in seeing what the steelbook looks like.
